Abstract

AI Nanny was proposed by Ben Goertzel to delay the singularity of technology to protect humanity. Its most important purpose is to maintain the interests of mankind. The importance of hypothetical AI Nanny is well-presented by Goertzel because technical singularity will gradually lead humanity to decline. However, Goertzel drew a parallel between government and AI Nanny by claiming they are no qualitative differences between the two. After reconstructing and reorganizing Chalmers and Goertzel’s work of technical singularity and AI Nanny, the reasoning clearly illustrated there are differences between government and AI Nanny. Furthermore, the differences should be noticed before humans considered using AI Nanny in the future to prevent singularity. From the perspective of privacy, algorithmic errors, and the common interest of humans, it will not stably bring us benefits. Its concept is not easy to realize in society, because it needs to monitor our society in all aspects. This will also bring greater danger to people’s privacy.
